Excerpt from Chapter 3:
Age 14, on the Congo-Uganda border, 1966:
About forty-five minutes later, one of the border guards exited the hut. Clutching a bottle in one hand and his rifle in the other, he veered toward me. I sat motionless in the old truck. A couple other guards, laughing, stumbled out of the hut after him. Some of the women paused to watch. It was later now, and the little children had vanished.
“Hey. You!” he yelled at me through the open driver’s side window, waving the bottle, sloshing the liquid. “Come out! Come with me!”
“Why?” I asked. “Where? Where are we going?”
“Get out of the lorry and I will show you!” he barked, swigging from the bottle. I slid off the bench seat and jumped down onto the dirt road. He pointed to a girl, about my age, leaning against the hut. She was smiling at me.
